    Yeah you think I'm trolling but let's wait two Ubuntu versions until they make Wayland mandatory and get rid of Xorg. Everybody will be crying in pain when nothing will work any longer mark my words. Ubuntu is well known for using stuff that isn't anywhere near stable, or usable, or anything remotely decent.

    *ignoring troll*

    However, if "enduser" listens to "expert" and "expert" states "release annoucement dull", then "enduser" is likely to adopt that. Please don`t do that. If they don`t have a mind, you might aswell say it is "exhilataring beyond belief", and the real experts who make this stuff will have a better time.

    Sometimes change is painful, but necessary.

    Officially, welcome Wayland!

    Like they made Unit... Oh wait, you can still remove it. "Crying in pain" .. xD lol
    Plus, what will we do without the tearing? They'll remove that feature too from Linux. Among many other things. :|

    Wait, isn't that Arch and Fedora? I am missing things lately, and I wanted to reinstall Arch to try all the new/unstable/unusable things more easily .. Better stay on Ubuntu you say?

    Not trying to troll and I welcome new solutions but as it stands Wayland doesn't look like its at a v1.0 state yet.
